Could this get me into trouble at school or with the law?
Who might be hurt or embarrassed by this content?
Does it give any information about me or another person that should not be shared?
What does this content say about the kind of person I am? Is that how I want to be seen?

First day of 4th Term!!!
We did a HUGE speaking activity that took most of the period and you received a stamp on it by the end of the period (you cannot make this up except by doing a lab or other extra credit)
You also received a stamp on the blue warm-up we did last time.
The tarea was KLMN and next time it will be OP and the rest of the assignments are on your calendar. No EXCUSES for not having homework completed!! It doesn't matter if you are absent because you know what the homework is and the bright pink 1/4 sheet tells you all of the deadlines. The deadlines are also NON-Negotiable. This packet will be 1/4 of your grade this last term and you actually have access to the key so COME IN before or after school to check a few exercises.

Spanish 3! Don't forge that we have a field trip March 21st and you need to pay $3 to finance office before we leave. This field trip is worth 100 points and we will be preparing for it and I will be watching your interactions with the students while there. This is a privilege and I want to know that you get that!! If for whatever reason you are unable to attend you will be given a HUGE assignment as a makeup.

March 1, 2017 NetSmartz

Today we covered a few things. I had you watch two Paul Furey videos: Just Listen and How to Get Someone to Change Their Mind. They can both be found on youtube.

We also watched the Prince Ea video "Can we Auto-Correct Humanity?" also found on youtube.

Then we watched a NetSmartz video and filled in the notes. You can try to look that one up on NetSmartz - its the teen version.

I have assigned you to fill out the the two papers "How well do I know my parent? and How well do I know my teen?" You have to have them both filled out and a parent signature.

We will finish this unit by next week and watch "Cheaper by the Dozen"

Extra Credit - You may watch "A Beautiful Mind" and write a one-page hand-written or typed paper telling me how it changed your view of mental illness. I am not interested of a summary of the movie...you won't get the points if that is what you do. This assignment has a possible of 25 points. You may receive all or a portion of those points.

Monday February 27th

We discussed Conflict Management. There are 3 pages in your packets you filled out with Conflict Resolution scenarios and I had you take some notes on a white piece of paper that you will staple to your Social Health Packet.  Here is the PowerPoint

This is the link for the Clozeline activity we did in the class "Un Rey y Un Diez"


We have begun the irregular Preterite packets. I will be handing out a paper explaining the deadlines tomorrow. They are worth 195 points and will land on 4th term. We will also have a monster test with verb trees from the verbs covered in the packet. Remember that you have access to the key but only before school, during lunch and after school....not during class. I only have a few and will only let a few check them at a time so there might be a line. You are not allowed to correct them while looking at the key:( Remember that you may only have a crayon while looking at them and that you may only put a dot in the margin of the sentence where a mistake has been made. If you circle anything or make other corrections THEY WILL BE MARKED WRONG and YOU WILL LOSE POINTS!!!


We are nearing the end of the term. You will be turning in your calendars on the last day of the term. Many of you still have your bienvenidas...You have to do them in class!! If you have procrastinated and we don't have time in class to do yours you will miss out on the 75 points!!!and your lab passes are due.

Some make up points available to those who failed: Future and Conditional, Reflexive or missed verb tests. You will only receive some points back...not all of them as the deadlines for these assignments have passed. This Friday is the deadline for Verb Test 2B and next Thursday is the deadline for 3B.

Extra Credit: You may due extra credit lab visits for 5 points each for a maximum of 25 points (If you can still get in) and of course whatever Duolingo assignments you have completed this term (I can see that date you completed the assignment)
